I like to think Floyd had been a slut for years due to reproductive instincts going into overdrive to encourage repopulation as a result of coming back to a dead Troll Tree and assuming his entire tribe got eaten.
(I suggest tagging this as "trollsnsfw" so minors and those uncomfortable with nsfw will block that tag and be able to avoid it.)
Lol, I like the emphasis on Floyd being a slut for this XD
And while I usually view topics like this in a more analytical light and less of actual nsfw, I see what you mean and that's probably a good idea, so I'll do that
If we wanna talk about reproduction and why animals feel the drive the begin mating, I'll talk about what actually triggers animals to begin reproductive cycles and why.
They're not going to be like humans, where we can pretty much do it whenever we like, and because we can do it whenever, women menstruate monthly to keep the uterus constantly prepared.
Lots of animals rely on environmental cues and resource availability to trigger their heats, and I wouldn't be surprised if Bergens 100% took advantage of this.
1. Daylight hours
Extended or decreased daylight can indicate optimal chances of offspring survival. Either because its indicating the end of fall or the beginning of spring, and if an animal has a long pregnancy, they may choose to mate late fall and be pregnant during the winter so the offspring is birthed in spring. Alternatively, if they have a short pregnancy, than the beginning of spring is great as everything will be warm and grown and ready when the offspring arrives.
2. Temperatures/Weather
Can be tied to the first reason, as temperatures and weather often indicate which season is approaching.
3. Food Availability
Also tied to the first two, whether there's even enough food to handle is a big indicator for animals. If lots of animals share similar mating instincts, then this can either be good (lots of foods available) or bad (viewed in nature as the food).
Besides environments, lots of social and behavior cues can also indicate reproductive instincts. The availability of a mate, hormones and territories, courtships, and even just feeling safe.
Being captured by Bergens probably screwed over the [pop] trolls' instincts like crazy. Suddenly being captured and confined within a limited space, all living under one tree, constantly under surveillance and not knowing when the next feeding will be... that's a lot of stress for a little guy.
And if we want to keep believing that early Bergens (before the first movie) were downright HORRIBLE, then maybe they did some things to mimic those environmental cues to trigger more troll population just to line up with Trollstice, OR...
Maybe Chef just circled the tree and sprayed them with a substance to forcefully trigger those instincts.
As for Floyd (or maybe even John Dory, since he canonically also went back to a dead troll tree), the sudden sight of an empty, dead tree with no signs of living life would be absolutely crushing. Zero mates, zero community, zero food supply, and habitat dangerously uninhabitable.
Leaving that and suddenly taking refuge in another genre's territory?
Lots of mates...
Lots of food...
Lots of protection...
Lots of structure and stability...
Yeah. I would believe those instincts went haywire.
Bruce clearly got busy, so why not anyone else?
And I think Branch would be a wonderful depiction of a troll who's experienced zero hormonal influence, considering his constant desire to feel safe.

It's a pigsty: dirty clothes everywhere, empty bottles and cans, sheets haven't been washed in ages. I think maybe he'd have a lava lamp (just cause I feel like that's a common light fixture in VRC). The only reason he has a bedframe is because the house came with it.
29. What’s a memorable moment from their childhood?
A good memorable moment? Probably the first time his dad taught him guitar. I think maybe it was the longest lesson they had and then after, Malcom would show Julien a couple of chords and tell him to just practice over and over. I think once Julien outgrew Malcom's lessons he asked for more lessons from a teacher and that's how he got really good.
could you answer 15 for james since we dont know much about her?
Sure! hmmm James... well for one, Shawn's jokes illicit a disgust response. She thinks her twin is the unfunniest troll ever and has no idea how she makes money. James also really struggles with certain fabric textures, she cannot stand denim.
3. Who would they trade places with, if given the chance?
Poppy (for conclusiveness)
6. What does their room look like?
hmm Otto's room at home is probably really messy when he's there. I think when he's away Mercedes tidies it up and vacuums regularly and stuff. I think if he ever got his own apartment it would be pretty sparse in the living room and kitchen since he goes out more than he entertains in.
His room at home also has a lot of video games and a desk with a PC and such.
i know its from a long time ago but for that oc ask meme? for otto or any of your blorbos!
For Otto its almost always gonna be Sal (before otto meets clay). Maybe on a rare occasion he would call his mom. And then if he's away from home and away from sal he would just called the last guy he .. had relations with.

How cool and funny would it be if some Metal trolls are demonic-looking so as a nod or something to Metal musicians and bands having been unfairly judged or called demonic?
I would love it Metal trolls were the nicest genre of troll to exist, bc they're just genuinely kind, loyal people, but because they look like they come straight out of hell, not many others interact with them
Oh, and a user named [x-elyssa-x] came up with their own concept of unicorn trolls.
Although the earliest instance I saw of a unicorn centaur troll was a concept for a Country-Pop baby by somebody else a long time ago.
I just checked them out, and the concept is really cool!
Im trying not to be super specific/set in stone with my ideas/headcanons, because I do genuinely feel like trolls can be so diverse and magical that almost anything can go
When I said Country-Pop unicorn trolls, I basically meant centaurs with horns.
I like the idea of a Country-Pop unicorn trolls being part-Classical as well!
For consistency or simplicity, we could call Country-Pop unicorn trolls something like "earthy variant" and Country-Pop-Classical unicorn trolls something like "classy variant".
Although I imagine an "earthy variant" may be confused for a "classy variant" if their Pop parent is a glitter troll or treasure troll and inherited certain traits from said Pop parent.
Okay, so a centaur with horns! Neat! I think for the most part, all of what I previously said can still apply.
Also, you mentioning a troll mix being "earthy variant" or "classy variant" just unlocked a whole new branch of potential that got me way too excited, because that is such a good way of referring to certain subgenres/mixes that may have one side be more dominant/prominent than the other.
I mentioned before how there can likely be 3 ways a mixed troll can appear. I also mentioned that trolls have an "internal harmony" which is their music embodiment, so a troll can look like one genre but have the music/soul of another, and oftentimes, this can manifest physically.
We can see this as a Troll's Phenotype (Observable characteristics [influenced by genes/environment]) vs Genotype (Organism's genetic makeup).
I think saying variant vs harmony can be placeholders for those terms. We can say that a Troll's Harmony is their Genotype, because it is what makes them them, while their Phenotype is dependent on whether they are, let's say, "rock variant" or "dune/country variant"
